I would guess “Local police partners” would be the New Haven Police.
“restorative practices” - my guess here is they gave the blocks back to the kid.

I’m going to guess it was a white kid. Schools face enormous pressure to not have their disciplinary statistics seem “racist”. So they will adopt a zero-tolerance attitude for white kids, and look the other way for kids like Nikolas Cruz in Parkland.

This is all about the Democrats trying to make kids afraid of guns.

“restorative practices”?
What kind of liberal gobble jargon is “restorative practices”?

Obviously another Charles Whitman in the making. Either that or the school administrators are complete fools.

“built a gun out of Legos”
In that little phrase lies the key to understanding the liberal mind: INSANITY!

It’s not a gun, so they are persecuting the kid for the THOUGHT of a gun.

F*CK the left.

“Appropriate steps were taken at the school level to insure the safety of all students and to impress upon the students the seriousness of engaging in positive peer interactions while avoiding conduct that may pose risk or concern to others.

So a kid builds something shaped like a gun out of Legos and the proper response is have men with real guns show up?

Useless ones like this (the school running morons) have made themselves the ones ‘evolution will passbye’ when noone sane will defend THEM when the ‘Excrement Hits The Impellors’ finally in what they assumed was their ‘safe little world’.

Common sense is a attribute important in Survival, and these dimbulbs who did this at this school (not the kids, these Progressive-pandering authorities) have failed for their future survival.

LET THEM DIE OF THEIR OWN STUPIDITY

Remember :

Appearing to ‘improve things’ is as important (acti=ually easier) to the handsitting bureaucrat as any real correction in keeping/doing their jobs.

“school leaders and local police partners were able to investigate and resolve the issue internally with use of restorative practices.”

Bureaucratic, blathering bullshit. What does that really mean? "Restorative practices?" WTF is that?
